Stainless-steel D-sub connectors meet demand for nontoxic applications

February 25, 2019 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

TE Connectivity, Harrisburg, Pa., recently released its new line of rugged Amplimite D-subminiature (D-sub) connectors that put the same corrosion resistance of connectors made with cadmium into an environmentally-friendly, stainless-steel housing. The new stainless-steel housing is designed to meet the performance requirements of MIL-DTL-24308, offering up to 500 hours of resistance to salt spray in harsh environments.

TE Connectivity Stainless-Steel D-Sub connectors“As militaries move away from products that contain cadmium in order to comply with environmental regulations, we’re designing products like the Amplimite D-sub connectors that meet new demands while maintaining durability standards,” said William Newton, product manager for TE’s Aerospace, Defense and Marine division.

TE’s new Amplimite D-sub connectors have passivated stainless-steel shells and comply with Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directives. They are available in standard density 20 or high density 22 AWG crimp contacts.
